$1500!
20% off of $1500 would be $300. $1500 - $300 = $1200. Therefore the original sales price was $1500!
Answer:
$1,500
Step-by-step explanation:
The discounted amount is a function of the original amount. The discount when subtracted from the original sales price gives the price after discount.
If the amount after discount is $1200 and the discount is 20%, let the original sales price be x.
Then,
x - (20% × x) = $1200
80% × x = $1200
x = $1,500
The original sales price is $1,500
